Co-presented with Nashville Jewish Film Festival. The Board of the Tennessee State Museum Foundation and the Nashville Jewish Film Festival invite you to a special screening of Shalom Y'all and a curatorial tour of Bagels & Barbeque on Level B of the Tennessee State Museum. Mix and mingle prior to the screening. Free popcorn and refreshments. Shalom Y'all, the award-winning documentary, is a feature film about the Jewish experience in the American South as told through the eyes of a native son and the "cultural cousins" he encounters. At the center of the story is filmmaker Brian Bain, a third-generation Southern Jew from New Orleans, in search of his cultural roots. Traveling in an old Cadillac like the one his father drove as a hat and tie salesman on the same roads, Bain takes the viewer through Delta flatlands, coastal low country, mountain passes, small towns, suburban subdivisions and sprawling sunbelt metropolises to discover a vibrant regional culture that blends the Old World with the New South. Through his search for a balance between modern life and ancient traditions, the filmmaker paints a postmodern picture of American life at the beginning of a new century.
